This study was divided into 3 sections. The first series of experiments was designed as a randomized complete block in the greenhouse to screen snap bean lines for host suitability and resistance against two populations of SCN. The second section was designed as a 5 x 4 x 10 factorial representing 5 temperatures, 4 host genotypes (resistant and susceptible snap beans and resistant and susceptible soybeans), and 10 sampling times to investigate these effects on the nematode development and plant response. Thirdly, one experiment was designed as a randomized complete block in the greenhouse with 5 inoculation treatments on 2 snap bean genotypes to compare the pathogenicity of SCN on snap bean to that on soybean.
